IF it was practical, I would be out of here tomorrow.
It never stops raining where I live (what's a drought?).
Our town centres are becoming boarded up ghost towns inhabited by pound shops, tanning salons, Big Issue sellers and drug dealers.
Jobs are very hard to come by, and those that are available pay a pittance and expect you to kiss a$$ for the privilege of working for them.
The road surfaces are a disgrace, some downright dangerous for cycling.
There is way too much traffic on the roads.
Petty rules are enforced to the max, while real crime goes undetected or lightly punished; the justice system is a joke.
Yob culture.
Political parties who promise everything and deliver nothing.
A general head in the sand attitude from people who think Britain is wonderful; WAKE UP!!
Having lived abroad for much of my youth, and then spent a few years in the Merchant Navy traveling the world, I personally think Britain is far down the league table of places to live.
Having said all that, the scenery in parts of Scotland is second to none, and on the occassional day when the weather is nice it really is hard to beat and all the minus points fade into the distance.
